Re: Crumart Trilogy replacement power transformer

2011-06-04 by Boddington

The upper most section of green jumpers on the left of the board are all ground connections, as are pin 11 & 12 on the second rail of jumpers. What I don't yet see is the ground connection from that center tap. The upper most pin above the two yellow and red wires could be meant for that but I don't have anything connected. It looks like it was never used.

Since this discussion went much further than I expected (thank you!) I'll remove this PSU assembly and snap better pics for you. Despite it being a seemingly fundamental and simple topic, I'm intrigued that it wasn't necessarily a quick and wholly straight forward answer.

On a side note, I'm not sure there's room for two transformers. It's super tight there actually.
